标题：India's surprise baby bust is a warning to the world
It is not just rich places that are becoming less fertile
正文：For decades, India's rulers sent citizens a blunt message: stop having so many children. In the 1960s school walls carried slogans urging families to limit births. By the 1970s the government took an even harsher turn,overseeing the sterilisation of millions of mostly poor young adults, many against their will. Yet when Indian textbooks are reprinted this summer, they will carry a startlingly different warning—not about too many babies, but about too few.
知识点：blunt adj. /blʌnt/
direct and straightforward, often in a way that may offend 直率的；生硬的
• She gave a blunt assessment of his performance, saying it was simply not good enough. 她对他的表现给出了直率的评价，说实在是不够好。
• His blunt refusal surprised everyone in the room. 他生硬的拒绝让屋里所有人都很惊讶。
